    the strength in being vulnerable enough to accept outside help

    Get out of my head. I lost my first apartment because I refused to ask for help when I needed it. I wasn’t evicted, but when they turned our power off the landy decided he wasn’t gonna renew our lease. I had to get humble and move home, then I was able to finish my degree and get a new career (I went tech instead of medicine but the parallels are there). Now I’ve got the dopest job ever where I’m respected and well paid, I’m married, I own a home and I’m happy.

      Great to hear you’re good and getting better, man! Keep on keepin’ on! As long as the planet doesn’t burn up too soon, maybe we can all make humanity a kinder, wiser species by being like the people we needed when we were on that raggedy edge. 🙌🏽🔥
